Good late evening, Mr. King. Would you be able to cover the Nepo vs. Naka Kings Gambit game which transpired during this years G.C.T. ? Final round of the Day 2 in the Blitz section. Final game of the event if I'm not mistaken. Not the outcome K.G. aficionado would want but, Nepo did have a promising position.

[@aleksandrailic5818]

Phenomenal analysis. Actually, best chess analysis on YT.

[@thesnackbandit]

It’s quite encouraging to know that I would have played the first 20 moves exactly the way Nepomniachtchi did. His course on the king’s gambit is simply phenomenal I highly recommend it.

[@joseraulcapablanca8564]

A great game, I love my Kings Gambit. Enthusiastic analysis, thanks Daniel and keep up the good work.

[@sebszab76]

Happy belated birthday Danny!

Outstanding video with very clear explanation

[@davidwillacy4796]

One heck of a game Mr King. Thanks

[@JJ-kl7eq]

Anytime is a great time to talk about the King’s Gambit! Except maybe: So, Mr. Smith. What qualifies you most to work at our daycare center? The King’s Gambit! Attack, attack, attack! Crush them into dust!! Well thank you for your time sir, good day.

[@balazsio]

Mr. Smith probably thought he was in the 'they care center'

[@phillipscudder5821]

Fantastic content and analysis as always!

[@JoaoPedro-sb4fh]

are you going to cover some alireza game from today? amazing perfomance from him by the way, love from brazil, youre my favorite chess analyst

[@magnusea]

Nice commented, especially at 11:35, that king move.

[@paulmeyer1756]

What a fun game! Thank you, Daniel!

[@hubertsang7418]

Great lesson Mr King, Nepo back to the romantic era of chess, channeling his inner Bronstein/Spassky/Spielmann.

[@fabiankroger4645]

Zugzwang not in an endgame, is great stuff!!

[@thishex]

White castles queenside after a KG opening. Never seen anything like this. Nepo for president

[@PowerPlayChess]

Take a look at my repertoire for White on the DVD/download - castling queenside is not uncommon in the KG!

[@SpartanThe300th]

@PowerPlayChess indeed.

[@ojas3464]

👍Scarcity of History on Lame-Duck Champions. Was Lasker a Lame-Duck Champion on the eve of his match against Capablanca? If Magnus decides to rejoin the next championship cycle, does he as a Lame-Duck champion get an automatic spot in the Candidates, or does he have to start at an earlier stage?

[@m42orion12]

Daniel,have you any plans for a follow up to your king's gambit on chessbase? A part 2 with more lines or a chessable course? Thank you...

[@PowerPlayChess]

I did a part 2 for ChessBase! shop.chessbase.com/en/products/king_powerplay_28_tactic_toolbox_kings_gambit

[@PowerPlayChess]

This really tests your understanding by looking at typical tactics in the opening that arise from many variations that I discussed in the repertoire in part 1 (PP 27)

[@m42orion12]

@@PowerPlayChess Sorry danny been on chessable too long! i'll go grab it with the toolbox....and any physical books youve written on Kings gambit.

[@PowerPlayChess]

@@m42orion12 No book on the KG. I was considering doing a follow up for ChessBase - greatest King's Gambit games. What do you reckon? Would that fly?

[@angelserrano253]

It's fantastic

[@kaynthomas7357]

Thank you

[@Opferschach]

4:12 As well as in the King's gambit, apparently.

[@PowerPlayChess]

Indeed. My mistake.

[@abhijitsarkar7257]

what is the benefit of learning kings gambit?current trend is QGD and nimzo indian,ruy lopez etc

[@PowerPlayChess]

Why play the King's Gambit? (1) Because it leads to exciting positions where one false move from your opponent can lead to disaster. (2) Playing the KG will teach you how to capture and sustain the intiative... (3) ...improve your tactical skill... (4)...and turn you from a sheep into a lion :)

[@levt47]

Dear Danial, International Young Man. I love your videos and watch them daily. Nobody is pronouncing Nepo's last name correctly and I would like for you to be an exception. Here is how to do it NEPO-NO-WHICH. The last 5 laters is a common english word "which". Thare in no stress on any of the 3 parts, just pronounce them as one word.

[@PowerPlayChess]

Haha. By the way, I’d like it if you could spell my name properly: Daniel.

[@dracandros]

Great 💪

[@illowrenollow423]

You watch to much Netflix 4:16 "QueensGambit", no offense, h5 & h4! 😁

[@chessgold8768]

Kings Gambit..

[@shahrysrmosallanejad2307]

I love your videos dani, thanks alot for sharing your knowledge and your kind personality with us. I have a question, Why black could'nt just wait by moving the rock in e8 insted of Qxe4? I mean there was no need to take the pown black also can just wait and see how white wants to continue.

[@PowerPlayChess]

It was possible to wait, as you say. But in practice, players don’t! This applies in classical chess, and especially in blitz. No one likes to back down, and moving the rook away from the e-file feels like a compromise. Psychologically, that is difficult.

[@Jaylooker]

Nepo kept nudging black with problems to keep the initiative

[@PSModelling]

g4! Ng8+ would be an automatic move for most players.

[@vertsang5424]

but then you lose. both players would have their queen but black should manage to promote their pawns on the g and h files
